The premiere episode of Doctor Who season seven debuted today to a sold-out theater at the British Film Institute in London. In attendance were the show's cast and executive producers — including Matt Smith, Karen Gillan, Arthur Darvill, Caroline Skinner, and Steven Moffat — to screen the season's first episode, "Asylum of the Daleks," to eager fans. In the dark as to what's ahead for the new season? Catch up on our Doctor Who Comic-Con coverage for what to expect of the coming episodes.

Of course, I'm jealous of those who saw the episode while the rest of us wait in limbo for word of the season's US premiere date, but there was a major gift bestowed on Whovians today that we can't overlook: the release of over a dozen new pictures from the yet-to-be-seen episodes! Click through for our favorite peeks at the season, the cast at the premiere, and (yes, really) dinosaurs on a spaceship.
